I looked at personalbee and considered your request to evaluate, on appearances, what business you are in.

At first blush, it looks a bit like a googlespam page without ads. That's the bad news. And I think that is a clutter problem, not a content problem.

The good news is that with a bit of looking, I can tell that is a custom news aggregator with no fluff. Great. If it is stupid easy to use, I can imagine setting up something like it for clients who want to track news in their niche.
